30 Missing Heroes mixes oriental artwork from the Edo period in Japan with modern interpretations by tattoo artists around the world. The heroes of Suikoden: the 108 good bandits, are ancient and legendary characters with bodies covered extensively in elaborate tattoos. Their stories form one of the oldest illustrated novels in Oriental history.

This beautiful book contains 108 plates, 78 historic originals and 30 brand new interpretations. Each illustration is paired with a full descriptive chart, researched extensively by Rossella Menegazzo (Associate Professor of the History of Art of the Far East at the Milan university Università degli Studi di Milano). This collection is a must for everyone who values Oriental and tattoo history!
